"Hi Dan,

Thank you for your answer but I am not sure which link you are referring to?

This

http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/MAU3E...

or

http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/?Ntk=Pr...

Additionally I cannot find any information that one of these links refer to products that are compatible with the Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013 models.

I spoke to a sales rep of OWC and his answer was:

""OWC Duane C:

Hello doz12. I'm sorry, but we do not have anything that can help connect a retina 2013 SSD externally at this time.""

So what to do because I am lost and I need my data :P

Thanks again for any input!"

Hi, I upgraded my Late-2013 rMBP SSD to a OEM Apple 1TB SSD (made by Samsung). Now, I have a 256GB SSD PCIe laying around. I would use it if There is now a compatible enclosure. I know there wasn't available yet, but I also saw that today, OWC came out with a upgrade Kit for 2013 Mac Pro SSD (I think it's the same PCIe SSD !?), so I guess they will come out soon with a enclosure too ??

If I understand, you either have A1493, A1398 or A1502 printed on the back of the machine. The card is the same for MBA models A1465 and A1466 Mid/Late 2013-2015 (there is some crossover with the earlier models of the same number). These cards use a PCI-e interface, sometimes referred to as mini PCE-e or mPCI-e, this is a different interface than all previous versions that used mSATA or SATA interfaces. This allows for faster speeds. Currently the only adapter is mPCI-e to PCI-e which would allow you to plug it into a motherboard on a desktop computer in a regular expansion slot. If you find an adapter for this newer card that goes out to SATA, I would like to know, I have been looking for one for days.
